The aim of this study was to estimate the
performance of different work clothing types for reducing skin exposure to five
pesticides (azinphos-methyl, terbutylazine, alachlor, dimethoate, and
dicamba) in field distribution by tractor equipped with boom sprayer.
Performance was assessed by measuring the penetration factors of different types
of work clothing. The results show that the protection offered by personal
protective equipment (PPE) was always >97%, whereas the performance of cotton
garments ranged from 84.1% to 92.5%. The different cotton garments differed
significantly in their permeability, and the upper part of the body was the
anatomical region showing the greatest values of the penetration factors. These
results confirm the necessity of using PPE properly to minimise dermal exposure
to pesticides.
